of this Plan Preamble The Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan is a statement of issues, goals and policies meant to guide the future of land use in this County. This Comprehensive Plan is intended to recognize the expectations and rights of property owners and the community as a whole. Community Vision As a result of community outreach, a vision emerged that defines what people care about in Deschutes County. The high quality of life in Deschutes County stems from: . The beauty, bounty and richness of a healthy natural environment . A community of caring people . A strong and diverse economy . Access to a wide variety of outdoor recreational opportunities . The rural character of the region . Maintaining a balance between property rights and community interests Use of this Plan The Comprehensive Plan is a tool for addressing changing conditions, markets and technologies. It can be used in multiple ways, including: . To strengthen communication with the public. To guide public decisions on land use policy when developing land use codes, such as zoning or land divisions. As a basis for the development of public programs and budgets. As a basis for the measurement and evaluation of changes in the physical, social, environmental or economic makeup of the County. Modifications of the Plan itself may result from this process. To promote inter-government coordination, collaboration and partnerships. This Plan does not prioritize one goal or policy over another. Implementation of this plan requires flexibility because the weight given to the goals and policies will vary based on the issue being addressed. The Plan is not intended to be used to evaluate specific development projects. Instead, the Plan is a 20-year blueprint to guide growth and development DESCHUTES COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN – 2011 III PREAMBLE, VISION AND USE OF THIS PLAN Chapter 1 Comprehensive Planning Section 1.1 Introduction Background The purpose of the Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan is to provide a blueprint for land use conservation and development. This is accomplished through goals and policies that tell a cohesive story of where and how development should occur and what places should remain undeveloped. The Plan provides a legal framework for establishing more specific land use actions and regulations such as zoning. The goals and policies are based on existing conditions and trends, community values and the statewide planning system. This Plan covers a 20-year period from 2010-2030. To remain

  • Environmental Conditions Appendix II
    Environmental Conditions Environmental Conditions Appendix II The unique geology, hydrology and climates of the Deschutes River Subbasin create a diverse mix of habitat conditions for fish and wildlife. These populations are linked to the ecosystems in which they live and their health, individual characteristics and abundance reflect the diversity ― and quality ― of their environments. Fish populations, for instance, developed complex life histories through time that responded to the subbasin’s considerable variation in habitat conditions. Stream flows, water temperatures, substrate characteristics and other combined attributes affected anadromous fish distribution within the subbasin and timing of migration. Wildlife population abundance and distribution also developed in response to habitat conditions. Native grasslands once covered vast areas and supported species such as sage grouse, which once occurred exclusively in this habitat. Loss of grassland habitat greatly reduced such populations. Today subbasin habitat conditions continue to influence fish and wildlife production, distribution and survival. These habitats and their attributes ― as well as the aquatic and terrestrial populations they support ― are affected by both natural watershed processes and human activities that influence flow, water quality, upland and riparian conditions and instream habitat. This chapter examines how environmental conditions in the Deschutes watershed affect the subbasin’s fish and wildlife populations. Building on the more general review provided in the Overview, the discussion characterizes the environmental conditions within three watershed areas: the Lower Deschutes watershed (below RM 100), Crooked River watershed, and Upper Deschutes watershed (above RM 100). It characterizes the natural watershed environments, such as geology, climate and hydrology, and the focal fish species they support.
